Blend: 100% estate grown Pinot Noir, MV6 Clone
Season: The 2024 /25 growing season, was characterised by a warm, dry finish, allowing the fruit to ripen evenly and finish clean. The fruit was hand harvested in the first and second week of April.
Viticulture: Leaf plucking around the fruit zone allowed more sunlight and air flow into the canopy to minimise disease pressure. Low yields ensured fruit ripened to optimal levels before harvest.
Winemaking: Part destemmed, partially whole bunch fermented. The fruit was carefully pressed, settled and racked into second and fourth fill French oak hogsheads, maturing until September 2026.
Taste: Ruby red in colour with a garnet hue, this wine has bright cherry and cranberry aromas and a touch of sarsaparilla savouriness. The palate is lively and abundant, featuring juicy red and blue fruit flavours, earthy notes, and a hint of spice. The palate has a delicate tannin structure and moderate acidity.
